Jenkins TestComplete remote audio testing
I'm using TestComplete plugin in Jenkins to run automated testing on Jenkins-Slave machine. I'm running TestComplete in interactive mode. But I need to execute audio tests in the slave machine and need to run an interactive session with Remote audio playback option (Play on remote computer) as in RDP settings. Currently, in TestComplete plugin there's only option to set the screen resolution. Is there any way to select remote audio playback?Solved1.1KViews0likes1CommentThe operation cannot be performed, because the user session is disconnected.
I'm running Test Complete tests using Jenkins from master to slave node. When i RDP to the slave machine and run the job test will succeeds. But if the RDP is closed and when i try to exectute tests it shows an error in every test cases: The operation cannot be performed, because the user session is disconnected. I need to run Test Complete test from master node unattended. I configure slave node as Java web start. Jenkins runs as User in slave. I configured Test complete job to run an interactive session and i specified username and password for the interactive session. Is there anything i'm missing or is it must to have a slave RDP connection opened during the tests.Solved2.8KViews0likes6Comments
The operation cannot be performed, because the user session is disconnected.
Hi, I have a GUI test suite which I need to run on a remote computer according to a schedule, and I came to a problem I seem to unable to circumvent. To put it simple, the test suite performs GUI testing of a rich Windows client. The test package contains a VB script which launches TestExecute and supplies the various parameters required. I run this script on a test machine, accessed via Remote Desktop (that is, if the computer is named XY, the script is run on XY, accessed remotely, and launches TestExecute on XY). As part of this script, I have included a tscon.exe redirection so that the remote desktop window can be closed. I have created a scheduled task running this VB script regularly. When I run the script directly, it properly closes the remote desktop connection, and completes the tests successfully. When run by the task scheduler, it fails at some point with the error The operation cannot be performed, because the user session is disconnected. The relevant portion of my VB script ([...] indicates removed code]: ' Paramteres -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' Dim TCPath ' Path to TestComplete.exe Dim ProjectSuite ' Full path of the project suite to invoke Dim LogFolder ' Path to log folder Dim IniConfPath ' Path to the configuration ini file Dim LetAlone ' Set to True when test runs on remote desktop which you don't want to ' keep open ' Set parameter values TCPath = [...] ProjectSuite = [...] LogFolder = [...] IniConfPath = [...] LetAlone = true ' Global variables -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' Dim fso ' For file system access Dim sh ' Shell object for environment variables Dim operationalLog ' Log file for Test Complete runtime / command line errors Dim businessLog ' Test log in MHT format Dim timestamp ' Timestamp of invocation Dim sessionName ' Session name for remote desktop sessions ' Preparatory steps ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- silent = false timestamp = Now() Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set sh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") [...] ' Check if we need to redirect session so that GUI tests can run even when ' remote desktop session is terminated. If LetAlone Then ' Get session name sessionName = sh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SESSIONNAME%") ' Redirect session ' Version 1: when run manually on the remote computer ' sh.Run "tscon.exe " & sessionName & " /dest:console" ' Version 2: when run by task scheduler sh.Run "tscon.exe 0 /dest:console" End If ' Compose command line for test execution Dim command command = [...] ' Launch test sh.Run command, bWaitOnReturn = False When starting manually on the remote desktop, the code line sh.Run "tscon.exe " & sessionName & " /dest:console" is uncommented, and code line sh.Run "tscon.exe 0 /dest:console" is commented. It properly obtains the session name and redirects it to the console, the connection is closed, and the test completes successfully. However I found that task scheduler always creates a session with ID of zero, so for the production configuration, the first line is commented out, and the second is made effective. The script properly closes the connection when run by task scheduler, and it performs successfully one of the GUI tests. This test opens the tested application and measures startup time by waiting for a control on its main screen to appear. The second test is more complex, and it includes steps of clicking a DevEx XtraBars ribbon. This is the point where it fails: Aliases.Foo.Ribbon.ClickItem("Project|Create Project|New Project|DropDownButton|New Project"); Do you have any tips for a workaround? What other differences may there be between running under a "real" remote session and under the session 0 created or used by Task Scheduler? I cannot get the point why it succeeds under a named session, and why not under session 0.Solved5.6KViews0likes8Comments
